Basic Type:

Basic IDoc type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be exchanged between two systems.

Segments:

Segments form the basic building blocks of an IDoc type and are used to store the actual datta. A segment type is the name of a segment and is independent of the SAP elease. A segment definition is the release-specific name of a segment.

Steps in creating Segments:

T.Code WE31

Enter the name for your segment type and click on the create icon.

Type the Short text.

Enter the variable names and data elements.

Save and Go back.

Go to Edit -> Set Release.

Repeat the steps to create more segments.

IDOC TYPE:

Business data is exchanged with an external system using the IDoc Interface.

IDoc types (Special Structures) An IDoc type is defined through its permitted segments. Segments can be dependent on each other (parent and child segments). The IDoc interface can check for each IDoc whether thhe segments contained are compatible with thhe definitiion of its type. This systax check is activated or deactivated in the Partner Profiles.

Steps in creating IDoc Type:

T.Code WE30 to create IDoc Type.

Enter the Object Name, Select Basic Type and click Create Icon

Select the create new option and enter a description for your basic IDOC type and press enter

Select the IDoc name and click Create icon

The system prompts us to enter a segment type and its attributes

Choose the appropriate values and press enter

The system transfers the name of the segment type to the IDoc editor.

Follow these steps to add more number of segments to Parent or as Parent-child relation.

Save it and go back.

Go to Edit -> Set Release.

Message Type:

Steps in Creating Message Type:

T.Code WE81.

change the details from Display mode to Change mode

After selection, the system will give this message "The table is cross client (See help for further info)". Press enter.

Click New Entries to create new Message Type.

Fill details

Save it and go back.

Assign Message Type to IDoc Type:

T.Code WE82

Change the details from Display mode to change mode.

After selection, the system will give this message "The table is cross client (See help for further info)". Press enter.

Click New Entries to create new Message Type.

Fill details

Save it and go back.

Reward points if useful.

hi,

Steps to configuration(Basis) >>

1. Create Logical System (LS) for each applicable ALE-enabled client

2. Link client to Logical System on the respective servers

3. Create background user, to be used by ALE(with authorizaton for ALE postings)

4. Create RFC Destinations(SM59)

5. Ports in Idoc processing(WE21)

6. Generate partner profiles for sending system

The functional configuration(Tcode: SALE)

• Create a Customer Distribution Model (CDM);

• Add appropriate message types and filters to the CDM;

• Generate outbound partner profiles;

• Distribute the CDM to the receiving systems; and

• Generate inbound partner profiles on each of the clients.

Steps to customize a new IDoc >>>

1. Define IDoc Segment (WE31)

2. Convert Segments into an IDoc type (WE30)

3. Create a Message Type (WE81)

4. Create valid Combination of Message & IDoc type(WE82)

5. Define Processing Code(WE41 for OUT / WE42 for IN)

6. Define Partner Profile(WE20)

Important Transaction Codes:

SALE - IMG ALE Configuration root

WE20 - Manually maintain partner profiles

BD64 - Maintain customer distribution model

BD71 - Distribute customer distribution model

SM59 - Create RFC Destinations

BDM5 - Consistency check (Transaction scenarios)

BD82 - Generate Partner Profiles

BD61 - Activate Change Pointers - Globally

BD50 - Activate Change Pointer for Msg Type

BD52 - Activate change pointer per change.doc object

BD59 - Allocation object type -> IDOC type

BD56 - Maintain IDOC Segment Filters

BD53 - Reduction of Message Types

BD21 - Select Change Pointer

BD87 - Status Monitor for ALE Messages

BDM5 - Consistency check (Transaction scenarios)

BD62 - Define rules

BD79 - Maintain rules

BD55 - Defining settings for IDoc conversion

WEDI - ALE IDoc Administration

WE21 - Ports in Idoc processing

WE60 - IDoc documentation

SARA - IDoc archiving (Object type IDOC)

WE47 - IDoc status maintenance

WE07 - IDoc statistics

BALE - ALE Distribution Administration

WE05 - IDoc overview

BD87 - Inbound IDoc reprocessing

BD88 - Outbound IDoc reprocessing

BDM2 - IDoc Trace

BDM7 - IDoc Audit Analysis

BD21 - Create IDocs from change pointers

SM58 - Schedule RFC Failures

Basic config for Distributed data:

BD64: Maintain a Distributed Model

BD82: Generate Partner Profile

BD64: Distribute the distribution Model

Programs

RBDMIDOC – Creating IDoc Type from Change Pointers

RSEOUT00 – Process all selected IDocs (EDI)

RBDAPP01 - Inbound Processing of IDocs Ready for Transfer

RSARFCEX - Execute Calls Not Yet Executed

RBDMOIND - Status Conversion with Successful tRFC Execution

RBDMANIN - Start error handling for non-posted IDocs

RBDSTATE - Send Audit Confirmations

FOr testing you can use WE19.

Reward if it is usful,

Thanks,

Tcode BD82 - Generate partner Profiles & Create Ports

Tcode BD64 - Distribute the Model view

Message Type MATMAS

Tcode BD10 - Send Material Data

Tcode WE05 - Idoc List for watching any Errors

Receiving System(Inbound ALE )

Tcode SALE - for

a) Define Logical System

b) Assign Client to Logical System

Tcode SM59-RFC Destination

Tcode BD64 - Check for Model view whether it has distributed or not

Tcode BD82 -- Generate partner Profiles & Create Ports

give the information for required fields

RFC Destination : ERP800

Connection type: 3

Description

Target Host : ERP000

Message Type : MATMAS

and Execute --> 1 request idoc created for message type Matmas

press enter

Here Master Idoc set for Messge type MATMAS-->press Enter

1 Communication Idoc generated for Message Type

this is your IDOC

29 Error --> ALE Service Layer

then goto SE38 --> Execute the Program RSEOUT00

03 Error --> Data Passed to Port ok

then goto SE38 --> Execute the Program RBDMOIND

12 Error --> Dispatch ok

Inbound Status Codes

50 Error --> It will go for ALE Service Layer

56 Error --> Idoc with Errors added

51 Error --> Application Document not posted

65 Error --> Error in ALE Service Layer

for 51 or 56 Errors do the following steps

goto WE19 > give the IDOC Number and Execute>

Press on Inbound function Module

for 65 Error --> goto SE38 --> Execute the Program RBDAPP01 then your getting 51 Error
